At Finniss River Lodge, the Top End’s newest luxury retreat, escape to a diverse wilderness oasis on a working cattle property.
Viridescent floodplains meeting the distant cobalt sky engulf my vision. Sweeping black patterns circle the sky and head down to their plentiful feeding grounds. Breathing in the overwhelming sight, sounds and freshest air, I feel blessed that the third-generation Venturin family opened their magnificent natural wonderland for a maximum of 12 guests in May 2022.
A life-long family dream and three years in the making, Finniss River Lodge seamlessly blends within the Venturin’s 35-year-old, 200-square-kilometre working cattle property, Finniss River Station, now managed by Robert.
While you feel a million miles from anywhere, Finniss River Lodge is only a 90-minute drive or 25-minute helicopter/charter flight from Darwin. All creature comforts are at your fingertips, from the luxe country-style suites to the freshly prepared meals, selected wines and two daily activities included in your stay.
